This is a PURE amazing; a fantastic method to a BRILLIANT effect. This really is as close to PURE magic as you can get, and it doesn't matter HOW many times you watch the demo, you will NEVER figure this out.
Joshua Jay personally showed me this back before his lecture in 2008... I was fooled 100 times on the demo, and then in person. He taught it at the lecture and I was AMAZED. So then I got the download; AMAZED again. I HIGHLY recommend this, and Joshua is probably THE most creative magician of our time. This is a CRAZY method that isn't very hard to do and something I WILL be doing a LOT. Did this review help you?

I like the idea of letting the spectator grab and tear the corner off. They hold the corner and it matches up at the very end.
Unlike other versions where you have to switch the corner before you give it to them, this one is great. it also resets in seconds so you can do it again with another borrowed bill. His vanish does take a bit of work, but it is worth it, especially for people like me that don't wear sleeves when performing. Did this review help you?
Ingenious New Concept for the Bill Tear
Report this review
Jake Roeber from Superior WI, USA on April 3rd, 2010
This effect allows you to make a corner from a borrowed bill vanish and re-appear ANYWHERE YOU WANT! my personal favorite is to have the corner and bill reappear in someone's pocket, or on their shoulder. It adds a level of personalness to the effect that cant be found by others.

This trick is the Joshua Jay classic. Its an excellent trick, very smart. You need to think about it a while to decide how you want to present it, chances are you wont be comfortable with most of the ways Josh suggests but its easy to find one that works for you. I really should do this more often.

Reinvention of torn bill production
Report this review
Mitch Sommerfeldt from Wisconsin on April 2nd, 2010
Joshua Jay does a great job inovating his take on the Torn bill production, its's absoultly brillint and can be used on a day to day basis, a little dirty but not as bad as the normal one. Overall a great idea, Joshua Jay never ceases to amaze me.

I love this routine by Joshua Jay! The idea within this routine is so versatile; there are so many options available with this idea. I have seen a number of different effects like this, but nothing this clean. Joshua goes into very good detail when explaining this trick and leaves nothing out. The sleights are not extremely difficult to learn, but they will require some practice. But the practice will be well worth it. I highly recommend this product!

People freak out when you rip their money. It requires really great audience control, and it just isn't worth it in my opinion. Spend your money elsewhere!

There's a reason why, in the video, Joshua Jay performs this with a group of friends. That's really the only practical environment in which this would work. In the real world, a stranger is very unlikely to let you handle their wallet, and if they do, they're probably not going to be especially comfortable letting you doing so, which adds an unwanted layer of tension and scrutiny to the effect.
I concede that the thinking and structure behind the routine are absolutely outstanding... and yes, it will likely fool and floor a lot of people... provided of course those people are your friends who don't mind handing you their wallet. Seriously... who wants to go up to a stranger and say, "Can I have your wallet?" Did this review help you?
Heres the thing it is a great method and idea for the switch, but you have to be careful reaching into someone elses wallet. Having said that...it can be done with great success. Just build a relationship with your audience, get a laugh, and youre good to go! Solid method, great ending, just a bit impractical at times.

The idea of a bill to anywhere is age old. This version is a different way of thinking and relates to an old erdnase quote: "The resourceful magician, failing to improve the method, changes the moment" and that's what Joshua has done here to vastly improve the handling. Love it. Kills
